We are officially in it, and by “it,” I mean something that we would rather avoid, but must find the strength to face head on. The cosmic forecast throughout the month of October hinted at things to come. Now that we’ve entered the final stretch of 2013, we’re being strongly (not gently) pushed to clear up and out what no longer serves us. This could be a relationship, a job, a home, a health matter, a pattern, a financial hindrance, a habit or a simple fear. No matter your situation or how you’ve been recently pulled through the ringer, taking that plunge will be the only way to free yourself from the blockage. Luckily, we have support from the heavens above (as we always do) to help navigate these choppy seas. But courage is still essential. What’s happening is on a deep core level where the ego cannot intrude. This is soul work that will usher in an abundance of awareness, along with a new conscious way of living and being. The initial struggle simply involves us learning to stand on terra firma that bears our personal stamp. In doing so, the rewards will outweigh the mishaps, and the tools developed as a result can be used in our everyday lives. Let’s get started together.

Aries: Hopefully by now, you understand where you went wrong, Aries. Yours is a sign that prefers to live life on your terms, but that attitude can work against you. This reality hit home on the career front, where you’ve been trying to make some headway. If you’ve been adamant about doing things your way, you’d be wise to make amends where you’ve caused offense to those who could actually help. You can’t do this alone; you’d be surprised by how far you can get when others are involved. Where are you struggling?

Gemini: While life flutters around you, your need for emotional security intensifies. The daily grind has shifted Gemini, forcing you to incorporate new routines and habits as a result. The question, however, is whether or not your daily affairs work in tandem with your sense of foundation. Where you “hang out” most might be where you should live. Or vice versa; there may be too much activity happening on the home front. No matter the situation, personal comfort should be your top priority. Where are you struggling?

Leo: Now you get it, Leo. Now you understand why it is so important to nurture and nourish your soulful self. What happens “out there” is not as important as what happens within.
